Yes, Verisafe Scaffold Shrink Wrap is 100% recyclable. At Polythene UK we constantly strive for improved environmental responsibility and subsequently want our products to reflect this. You can find out more about our green commitment here.

Please note: once the shrink wrap has been used it cannot be reused.

The shrink wrap will have a lifespan of approximately 12 months at 48 degrees. Any longer is unusual as the sheeting includes UVI (Ultra Violet Inhibitor) which can begin to disintegrate over time. A key advantage for Verisafe Shrink Wrap is its malleable strength which can prevent tears and detached sheeting, significantly reducing any repair costs.
